A transcript is a retrospective written record of dialogue, and like a script (a prospective record) may include other scene information such as props or actions. In the case of a transcript of a film or television episode, ideally it is a verbatim record. Because closed-captioning is usually written separately, its text may have errors and does not necessarily reflect the true Canonical transcript.

Transcripts for Lost episodes up to and including "Enter 77" are based on the transcriptions by Lost-TV member Spooky with aid of DVR, and at times, closed captions for clarification. She and Lost-TV have generously granted us permission to share/host these transcripts at Lostpedia. Later transcripts were created by the Lostpedia community, unless stated otherwise below.

GABRIELA: I'm thorough, too. She must be a very special person to let you work until 4:30 in the morning.

JACK: [looking at his watch] I completely lost track of... I've got to... Will you excuse me?

GABRIELA: Yes, of course, go. And Jack, thank you.

JACK: Yeah, of course.

GABRIELA: Good night.

JACK: Good night.

[We see Sarah lying in bed in the dark with her eyes open as Jack arrives home.]

SARAH: Hey, how is he?

JACK: Hey, sorry to wake you.

SARAH: I had to get up anyway. So how is he?

JACK: About the same. Sarah, I'm sorry. I meant to... I just got...

SARAH: Hey, that's the price of being a miracle-worker. [She gets out of bed.]

JACK: Where are you going?

SARAH: I have to go to the gym and then I've got some papers to grade. [Jack gets into bed and she sits down near him.] I didn't want to say anything until I knew either way, but, um, I was late, so, I got a pregnancy test.

[Jack sits up and looks concerned.]

SARAH: Don't worry. It's negative.

JACK: Do you, um, want to talk about it?

SARAH: What's to talk about?

JACK: Sarah, I...

SARAH: See you later, Jack.

[On-Island - We see a footprint in the jungle, with Locke examining it.]

JACK: Well?

LOCKE: Well, I can't tell you it's definitely Michael's, but it looks like his boot print.

KATE: There's one over here, too.

LOCKE: That sounds like a trail.

KATE: [to Jack] You got a gun for me?

JACK: You're not coming.

KATE: Excuse me?

JACK: You're not coming. Someone has to be here to take care of the button.

KATE: So why should that person be me? I can track, carry a gun...

JACK: You're not coming! You're staying. Alright?

[Sawyer pulls the slide on his gun.]

JACK: [walking away] Let's go.

[Sawyer gives Kate an apologetic look and follows Jack.]

Act 3

[We see the boys trekking through the jungle.]

SAWYER: What'd she do to you?

JACK: What?

SAWYER: Kate, what'd she do?

JACK: She didn't do anything.

SAWYER: Right, you're yelling at her because she wanted to help get Mike back makes a lot of sense.

JACK: Why don't you go back and see if I hurt her feelings?

SAWYER: I'm just saying.

JACK: Yeah, I know, you love her.

SAWYER: What'd you say?

[Locke stops and looks around.]

JACK: What?

LOCKE: [to Sawyer] Does any of this look familiar from when you were coming back?

SAWYER: Well, yeah, there's my favorite leaf. How could I forget this place?

JACK: [to Locke] What's wrong?

LOCKE: [to Sawyer] When you came across the island what side was the ocean on? [Sawyer looks around and points.] You came from the east, Michael's heading north.

SAWYER: What the hell's that supposed to mean?

JACK: It means he's not going back to where you came from. He's heading somewhere else.

[We see Kate talking to Hurley on the beach, with Jin looking on. Sun approaches with a hat.]

[We see Jack walking out to his car in the parking lot. Gabriela gets out of her car nearby.]

GABRIELA: Jack?

JACK: Gabriela, my father told me that you'd gone. I, uh -- I, uh --

GABRIELA: Thank you. Thank you for trying. [She starts crying.]

JACK: [hugging her] I'm so sorry. I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.

[They kiss and then Jack pulls away.]

GABRIELA: It's okay.

JACK: I, I'm... I can't. [He walks away.]

[On-Island - We see Jack lighting some torches.]

SAWYER: What do you mean you lost it?

LOCKE: He's a man, not a boar. The sign's more subtle. I need light to follow it.

JACK: [giving torches to Locke and Sawyer] Here, light.

LOCKE: I think we'd better head back.

SAWYER: What?

JACK: Just find the trail, John.

LOCKE: I've lost the trail.

JACK: You don't just lose a trail! You just don't want to find him.

LOCKE: Yeah, that's right, Jack. I've been running in the jungle toward the sound of gunfire because I don't care about Michael. [Locke starts walking away.]

JACK: Don't turn around on me, John.

LOCKE: You're not going to get him to come back and you know it.

JACK: You know what happens if we just turn around and go back? We're never going to see him again. And that's going to be on us -- on you, and on me.

TOM: [off camera at first] You're exactly right, Jack! But if I were you, I'd listen to Mr. Locke.

Act 5

[Locke, Jack and Sawyer all have their guns drawn on Tom.]

JACK: Who are you?

SAWYER: He's the son-of-a-bitch that shot me on the raft. [Sawyer moves forward, looking like he's going to shoot.]

TOM: Why don't you point the gun down?

[Sawyer is suddenly shot, the bullet apparently grazing his ear or neck as he's not seriously hurt but his hand comes away with blood on it. Jack and Locke look around trying to figure out where the shooter is.]

TOM: It'd probably be best if we just keep our hands at our sides, gentlemen.

JACK: Where's Michael?

TOM: Don't worry about Michael. He's not going to find us.

JACK: What do you want?

TOM: Why don't you build us a fire, John? I think it's time we all had a talk.

[We see an album cover for Geronimo Jackson. Hurley and Charlie are looking through the albums in the hatch.]

HURLEY: Geronimo Jackson?

CHARLIE: Well, hooo, as an expert in all things musical -- I've never heard of these guys, shocking as that may be. Geronimo Jackson?

HURLEY: [holding a different album] This looks sweet. Let's give her a rip.

[Charlie puts the Geronimo Jackson record down and puts the other album on the turntable.]

HURLEY: So what do you think's the story with that Libby chick?

CHARLIE: The story?

HURLEY: She's kind of cute, right? You know, in a I've-been-terrorized-by-the-Others-for-40-days kind of way.

CHARLIE: Yeah, there is that.

HURLEY: I think I have a chance with her. I mean, it's the classic desert island scenario. If I ever had a shot, this is it.

CHARLIE: Do you think Claire's missed me yet?

HURLEY: Dude, it's been a day.

SAYID: [entering] This music is quite depressing.

HURLEY: We can change it, dude. Did you ever hear of Geronimo Jackson?

SAYID: I'm afraid not. Where's Jack and Locke?

HURLEY: Oh, they went after Michael.

SAYID: Michael?

CHARLIE: Yeah, he's run after Walt again. Everyone's gone to bring him back.

TOM: Oooo, 50 days. That's what -- almost 2 whole months, huh? Tell me, you go over a man's house for the first time, do you take off your shoes? Do you put your feet up on his coffee table? Do you walk in the kitchen, eat food that doesn't belong to you? [He looks at Locke.] Open the door to rooms you got no business opening? You know, somebody a whole lot smarter than anybody here once said: "Since the dawn of our species man's been blessed with curiosity." You know the other one about curiosity don't you, Jack? This is not your island. This is our island. And the only reason you're living on it is because we let you live on it.

JACK: [smiling broadly] I don't believe you.

TOM: You don't believe what?

JACK: I think you've got one guy up there with a gun. I think there's more of us than there are of you. I think if you had any real strength, you wouldn't have had to send a spy -- Ethan.

TOM: Don't. -- Jack, the decision you gotta make right now is this -- can you live with the fact that I shot this woman right in front of you when you could have saved her life by giving up and going home? Or are you going to give me your guns, turn around and walk away. It's your call, Jack.

KATE: I was just trying to help, Jack. When you told me not to go, I just... I made a mistake. [Jack doesn't respond.] Hey, could you just talk to me for a second. -- I'm sorry.

JACK: Yeah, I'm sorry, too.

[Flashback - Jack arrives home to find Sarah clearing dishes from the table.]

JACK: Hey.

SARAH: Hey. How did it go?

JACK: He died.

SARAH: I'm sorry.

JACK: Yeah, me too. Who was over?

SARAH: My mom.

JACK: The bridge game okay?

SARAH: Oh yeah, she's on a streak. Did you eat?

JACK: Yeah. No, it's uh, it's late. I'm fine.

[Jack joins her at the sink to help with the dishes.]

SARAH: You don't have to do that.

JACK: It's therapeutic -- cheaper than a shrink.

SARAH: How did the daughter take it? What's her name, Gabriela?

JACK: She kissed me. Yeah, she... she kissed me and I kissed her back. I, I don't know. I don't know how it happened. I made a mistake. I made a mistake and this is my fault. It's my fault that you and me... I haven't been here. Sarah, I mean, we don't even talk anymore. I hate what's happening to us and I promise you that things are going to be different. I'm going to, I'm going to work less. I'm going to be here for you. Okay? I'm going to fix this. We're going to go back to the way things were. I'm going to fix this. I'm going to fix this.

[Jack hugs Sarah. She cries, but doesn't hug him back. She breaks away after a moment.]

SARAH: Jack. Jack, I'm leaving you.

JACK: What?

SARAH: I was already leaving you. That's why my mother was here. She was helping me pack. I've been seeing someone -- someone else. I have to... I can't stay.

JACK: Sarah.

SARAH: You, you will always need something to fix. -- Goodbye.

[We see Jack and the others arrive at the beach. Kate follows close behind Jack and wants to say something but he pays no attention and keeps walking. Kate stops, and Sawyer stops beside her.]
